Of course, Real Madrid has given up on the La Liga title and that is ok, why would they not? Fighting till the end is alright, and it is important in professional sports, but a sense of realism when you are also still competing in two other tournaments is essential as well. Why give everything you have in a competition when a couple of days later you are playing the most important club tournament in the world? Nobody would publicly say that they are playing at 90%, but everyone knows it.

They should give it up at the moment and there is no big difference between 12 points and 15 points in difference with Barcelona. Actually the gap is only 12 points but if Barcelona win their match, it will become 15 points. After this match day, La Liga will have only 10 remaining matches which are not enough for Real Madrid to earn 12 to 15 points more than Barcelona. It is unrealistic dream for anyone who believe Real Madrid can do this.

Modric and Kroos both didn't play. I am not sure if Ancelotti plans to leave them out against Chelsea as well, but as far as I know those two are his favorite midfielders. Both didn't start though, but I expect to start them in the Champions League.

Kroos is younger than Modric who is not able to play in all matches and all 90 minutes for each match. Ancelotti has to reserve Modric for important matches with Chelsea in Champions League. He still needs creativeness of Modric which is useful for their attacking system. I believe it is a plan from Ancelotti to win another Champions League with Real Madrid. Kroos and Modric are core players in his plan for a last Champions League cup in his career. There is rumor that Ancelotti will retire his career in clubs and only aim at national teams in future.

Ancelotti is the man that know when to win the right matches and the strategy he will use to the the matches.
I don't think they will be able to win Laliga anymore because the point margin is high to close up. Barcelona will be the winner of Laliga because they are more focus on this league and have a big point difference from their rival Real Madrid. Real Madrid lost to Villarreal today 3-2,this shows that it is impossible for them to win Laliga

I don't see Real Madrid having given up on the La Liga title race, Ancelotti fielded his best squad against Villarreal at the Bernabeu.
Real Madrid took the lead twice before Luis Morales and Chukwueze scored Villarreal equalizer and winner. The defeat that just happened to Real Madrid was a mistake made by the players themselves, they were not able to properly control the movement of Villarreal players, an open defense could be used by Villarreal to find a winning goal.

Losing three points makes it even more difficult for Real Madrid to catch Barcelona, their position is also increasingly threatened if Atletico Madrid can win the match against Rayo Vallecano. Even though Real have given up on the La Liga title race, they will need to be consistent in the rest of the season to keep their position secure.

Of course, Real Madrid has given up on the La Liga title and that is ok, why would they not? Fighting till the end is alright, and it is important in professional sports, but a sense of realism when you are also still competing in two other tournaments is essential as well.

That doesn't mean Real Madrid couldn't have won the game, but there is a good chance that this game would have ended differently if they were equal in points with Barcelona and actually still fighting for the title.

Sociedad defeated Getafe 2-0 at home, an important win for them. With this win they increased their points to 51. Although there weren't many scoring chances in the match, they managed to score two goals. The home side dominated the game and deservedly so.
In the most important match of the day, Real Madrid lost 3-2 to Villareal at home and we can say that their chances of becoming champions have diminished. Real Madrid, who took the lead with a goal at the beginning of the second half, could not protect this score and lost the match with two goals.

After seeing the performances in the first half I was thinking about the possibility that Real Madrid might lose points against Villarreal once again.

But this loss by 3-2 was much beyond my expectation from this game. Villarreal even made a comeback while they were 2-1 behind I mean. Doing this in Santiago Bernabeu is a pretty difficult work honestly. But I assume especially one thing was also a factor about this result to happen. This thing is that Real Madrid don't have a league title goal anymore. They must be fully focused on the Champions League and Copa del Rey from now on.

So unbelievable to think Villarreal will defeat real madrid one of the strongest team in the Spanish league. Villarreal performance was very impressive and their result they achieved. Real Madrid lose to Villarreal is an advantage for Barcelona to win the league season.

Don't you aware how difficult madrid to play with the same scheme against villareal right now? I meant if it's not caused by pau torres who has been making their own goal and madrid will only get 1 score. Pau torres was stupid enough. So many people were getting lost in this match caused by they were picking madrid and me too. That's unacceptable performance by real madrid for me to be honest. The chance for madrid to compete in la liga is zero right now.

I wonder what thing that makes real madrid's performance has been declining so hard. Villareal is not as strong as barcelona but why real madrid is always trying so hard when it was facing a weak club like that?
Im very disappointed with the result achieved by real madrid in this match. Real madrid has equal statistic to villa real but it has fewer on-goal attempts compared with villareal.

villarreal was a nightmare for real madrid in laliga this season because in the first meeting villarreal was able to beat real madrid with a score of 2-1, even in the second meeting in laliga this season villarreal was able to steal full points at the bernabeu with a final score of 1-2. Isn't this a bad thing for real madrid when dealing with villarreal.

It's true that Real Madrid's advantage was an own goal scored by Torres in the 16th minute, but Chukwueze was able to equalize quickly in the 39th minute. Even though Real Madrid took the lead again through Vini goal in the 48th minute, it didn't break the spirit of the Villarreal players, where in the 70th minute Morales able to equalize at 2-2 until in the end Chukwueze scored a goal in the 80th minute which made villarreal lock in victory in this match.

This is the 5th defeat for Real Madrid this season which makes it a little difficult for them to catch up on points from Barcelona. I think Real Madrid hopes in the fight for the La Liga title have run aground from this defeat because La Liga only leaves 10 more matches for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid's desire to win the match was high but later that desire was reversed. Villarreal are well known as a strong team but Real Madrid may have taken them for granted. Real Madrid performed well in the beginning but could not succeed after trying hard. They could not have imagined that Real Madrid would lose 3-2. I bet some of my money on the match but unfortunately I lost in favor of Real Madrid. and when I was watching the game at first I liked the situation but then when Real Madrid lost I got very upset and lost the bet.

Real Madrid realizes that in La Liga there is no chance of winning, so they prefer to try to win in other leagues, such as the Copa Del Rey, which they have won in every game. However, even though Real Madrid has no hope in La Liga, at least they must maintain their position to stay in second place and don't let another team take their best position.

When you see how Real Madrid are performing in other competitions and in La Liga this season, you have the feeling that they are two different team!
Villareal players aren't that bad and they were able to defy Real Madrid in their home and win vs them. Now the gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid could be 15 points by the end of this round while the gap between them and ATM could be as low as 2 points which isn't reassuring..

Unreal comeback! That was masterful comeback to upset real madrid at bernbeu , wonder how unpredictable football is? Watching real madrid demolished top performer barcelona and then get defeated at their own home 2-3 the next few days , big shock for everyone.

12 points away now in the title race with barcelona saved 1 match , it's finished already for me.

It's a shame, even though Madrid is one of my favorites for betting and making a multi which is indeed aligned for a team that is clear enough to win but in this match I lost my multi which was actually quite profitable for me.
The match was very exciting, it's just that when Madrid made this rotation it was clear that it was a little problematic for them.
Even though until the 60th minute I was still very happy, but after 70 minutes my bet had to be gone with Madrid losing in this match.

Love the selection or should I say picks, Real Madrid did damage to your beautiful selection, should be another defeat against Chelsea.
Shout out goes to Chukwueze who grabbed a brace last night, the equalizer and also the winner to put Villarreal ahead in the game during the 80th minute of the game. Barcelona wins and talks of Real Madrid getting La Liga is already over. Elche are not so soft side, but Barcelona has got to find a way to win too.

A surprising performance, even I didn't expect in the Copa Del Rey at Camp Nou they managed to win 0-4. It was incredible, even I was pessimistic before the game started. Of course this victory brought benefits because they reached the final. Real Madrid will play Osasuna. On paper Real Madrid are certainly superior. So Anceloti will get the Copa Del Rey trophy. and maybe they still have a chance for UCL or La Liga even if it's difficult. Their chances in La Liga are very heavy because of their twelve-point gap with Barcelona.

Real Madrid has no incentive to win this match as it won't add anything to their position in the standings table, so everything is decided regarding the winner of La Liga. They are also preparing for an important match against Chelsea which will commence within a few days, so the lineup wasn't the normal or the best one. One of the things I consider when I decide to make a bet is the incentive the team has or the effect of the result on their positions, and they clearly had no incentive to win although they started the match strongly, but everything changed when Ancelotti substituted Benzima to give him a bit of comfort before the Champions League match. I'm sorry you lost the multi-bet, but if I were you, I would bet on over 1.5 or 2.5 goals as it looked more reasonable.

Even if it's like that, this defeat is still not really acceptable, especially even if they can't compete for the championship, they have to be able to get 2nd position and with this defeat, Atletico can reduce the gap with Madrid.
Their priority is still the UCL but losing a game can also hurt their condition in terms of confidence.

For goodness sake why will a club take any match for granted when ordinarily, losing hurt a lot and for Real Madrid to have lost the match to a smaller club goes a long way to show how weak the club have become in recent time, and with this outcome, real madrid success in the champions leagues may be in a great doubt because football is not an easily predict game and sometimes the unexpected happens too.

But if a club to all the matches seriously, their chances of losing will be reduced and this will build motivation in the players to play more since their mindset is already fixed on winning the matches lineups before them, Real madrid have missed it this time because since the season started something ago, the club have not reflected what the used to be in the last seasons in the current on, I don't know what is the problem with real Madrid presently and if there will be any chance of recovery before the end of this season which is a few games away.

when you lose you have to admit defeat, in this game real madrid was playing seriously, obviously if real madrid won in this game real madrid would still have many chances to be champion, everything was not lost yet so that's why it was important for real madrid to win in this game, just see that real madrid was playing seriously, but villareal proved to be stronger and luckier, and the problem in the defense of real madrid is that allowed this defeat. this is not good for the next games of real madrid, because chelsea despite not being well they are not very weak either

also if real madrid doesn't manage to win la liga i doubt very much that the coach of real madrid will remain in charge next season, in the champions league things will not be as simple as many make it seem, there is a chance that real madrid will even reach the league final, but after chelsea there are good teams that will go through, and they are teams with great ability to beat real madrid, that's why I see winning the champions league as something very difficult to happen, my conclusion is that the coach of real madrid is saying goodbye, he won't be in next season and the other coach that comes will make changes

Since Real Madrid have lost points in several matches in La Liga, they are relatively focused on their targets to achieve targets in other competitions, such as the UCL and even the Copa del Rey. there is no great certainty about their performance in laliga especially the distance with Barcelona is 12 points adrift which is difficult for them to catch up with if Barcelona are able to appear consistently in the upcoming matches.

They are aware that they may not have the chance again to get La Liga trophy, so they struggle more effort in Copa. With this condition, I am sure that they will be able to defeat Ossasuna in the final, so they can bring the Trophy this season. Moreover, UCL, may have the chance but it is also still unpredictable that they are able to gain it again or not. But at least, they will also be more serious and optimal in all matches in UCL, because of their achievement so far.

Real Madrid wasted the chance to win three points. Carlo Ancelotti's troops took the lead twice through Pau Torres' own goal and Vinicius Junior's action. However, Madrid then conceded three times. Due to the results suffered, it seems that Real Madrid have to wave the white flag as a sign of surrendering in the race for the La Liga title to Barcelona. But I think this defeat will not be taken seriously by Ancelotti because he is now really focused on the Champions League and the Copa del Rey because only in these two competitions is Madrid's hope of winning a championship still open.

As it stands now, real Madrid and Barcelona are long done with title fight in la liga. Real Madrid doesn't have any more things to fight for. All they need is securing a good place in La liga top 4 cuz as it stands now it's wildly open to the fance that Barcelona is not giving up at this stoppage time, if it will, it could have been long time ago.
It will cuz Madrid nothing if they succeed in the top 4 today and maybe win the UCL, I will be glad to see them lift the UCL trophy, that will be a happy moment for Carlo Enceloti..

And now Villarreal scored the 2nd goal Cheesy

I agree with you Real Madrid not better in this match even Villarreal took over and controlled the game
I'm not sure Marid can secure 3 points in 10 minutes even if there is a 3rd goal it must be Villareal because indeed they are in control of this match.

Damn, a few seconds since this post then Villarreal really scored the 3rd goal Madrid 2 - 3 Villarreal Laliga surprise today Cheesy

Villarreal got what they deserve in this match, they were better than Real Madrid maybe Ancelotti is not planning on getting the La Liga title anymore. But Ancelotti this time made Real Madrid lose at home, it's not that great for their fans. Meanwhile with tonight win Villarreal managed to occupy fifth place in the La Liga table and they can continue their good trend, but tonight they are even more great because they can beat Real Madrid.

Unreal comeback! That was masterful comeback to upset real madrid at bernbeu , wonder how unpredictable football is? Watching real madrid demolished top performer barcelona and then get defeated at their own home 2-3 the next few days , big shock for everyone.

I agree with you, the coach knows the power every player has and their ability to give their best on the ground. That is why he didn't start with Modric, Kroos, and Kamavinga, in addition to replacing Benzima 30 minutes before the end of the match. The worrying point is that they received 3 goals, which suggest their defense is weak. However, the defensive line that won against Barcelona was completely different.
